Bodegas Vibe, Utiel-Requena (Valencia, Spain) Bobal 2017

 Terrific wine made from 65 year-old vines, with just exactly the right kiss of oak.  This sees eight months in French barrels, with the yeast lees stirred for the first four of those, before settling for the following four.  Red and blue fruit notes are absolutely delicious, with wonderfully expressive flavors but nothing too overt or obvious.  Dark and concentrated but definitely not overbearing, this is a great ambassador for Bobal.
